After briefly telling Ye Feng the history of the sword hall, Xiao Bai waved his hand fiercely, and a misty purple mist shot out from his palm. This purple mist gradually distorted in front of Ye Feng, and finally disappeared into his mind, forming a mysterious skill.
"Swallowing Soul Jue" is the most domineering method among all the martial arts in the sword hall. Its main feature is that people who learn the Soul-Swallowing Jue can not only sit cross-legged and meditate like ordinary swordsmen, cultivating their vitality, but also can rely on swallowing spirit.
The powerful devouring effect of Lingjue devoured the sword soul on the sword.
All swords will be accompanied by powerful murderous intent, and this murderous intent is the nutrient that practitioners of the Spirit-Swallowing Art need most. Every disciple of the sword hall who learns the Spirit-Swallowing Art has swallowed the murderous intent of countless swords in his life, which is exactly what he needs.
Relying on this, they can become sword masters or even higher level masters in a very short period of time.
Tianyuan Continent is full of sword sects, and the most indispensable thing is swords. But this does not mean that those who practice the spirit-swallowing art can upgrade by devouring the murderous aura attached to any sword.
The Soul-Swallowing Art is divided into eighteen levels, and the swords that need to be swallowed at each level are of different levels. To complete the upgrade of the first-level Soul-Swallowing Art, perhaps absorbing ten ordinary swords containing murderous intent is enough, and to complete the second-level Soul-Swallowing Art,
To practice spiritual art, you need to swallow at least twenty low-level swords.
By analogy, when the Soul-Swallowing Art reaches the fifteenth level, if you want to upgrade and evolve, you must swallow hundreds of divine weapons that are at least the low-level thunder level. Such an incredible data is enough to make many sword hall disciples poor.
It cannot be completed in one lifetime.
On the Tianyuan Continent, swords are similar to martial arts. They are also divided into four levels: Resolute and Windy, and three levels: High, High, and Low.
Taking the Li Shui Sword Sect as an example, the best sword is undoubtedly the wind-level mid-level Li Shui Sword used by Hai Wuya. It is precisely with this sword that Hai Wuya is firmly ranked among the top ten in the "Tianxing Ranking" of the Yin Shang Kingdom.
Among the great masters. Looking at the entire Yin Shang Kingdom, except for the Li Shui Sword, there are only three wind-level mid-level swords that can compete with the Li Shui Sword, and all of them are mastered by the top five masters in the "Tianxing Ranking"
.
After learning about the training method of the Swallowing Soul Jue, Ye Feng was stunned. Especially when he discovered that the fourth level of the Swallowing Spirit Jue required absorbing eighty low-level swords, he became even more aware of the difficulty of practicing the Swallowing Spirit Jue.
Although low-level swords are only slightly better than ordinary swords, their value is far beyond that of ordinary swords. Even for a sect like Li Shui Sword Sect, except for the disciples of the inner courtyard, they are only ranked in the outer courtyard.
Several disciples in the front row hold such swords in their hands.
Even though he knew that practicing the Spirit-Swallowing Jue was difficult, Ye Feng still had no intention of giving up. In any case, practicing the Spirit-Swallowing Jue was his only chance to become stronger at the moment. If he was someone who gave up easily, he would have already died before today.
Leave the Li Shui Sword Sect.
In addition to the Spirit Swallowing Art, Xiao Bai also gave Ye Feng a secret technique called Treasure Appraisal. The Treasure Appraisal Secret Technique is one of the strangest techniques in the sword hall, second only to the Spirit Swallowing Art. Its greatest function is
The cultivator is asked to open the eye of qi, so that the actual value of the treasure can be identified based on the color of the treasure's surface.
Without the treasure appraisal skill, I am afraid that many sword hall disciples would not be able to collect the swords needed after the tenth level of the Spirit Swallowing Art. But with this secret skill, it is different. The sword hall disciples can rely on this secret skill to avoid missing treasures.
, and rely on his personal collection to exchange for the swords he needs.
All in all, Jian Tang disciples cannot do without treasures in their lives. However, Ye Feng can guess that even if Jian Tang has such a magical method as treasure appraisal, I am afraid that Jian Tang disciples will not be too rich. After all, practicing the spirit-swallowing art is simply
Even if you are using gold ingots to waste money, even if you are an extremely wealthy master, if you want to further your cultivation, you will not be able to escape the fate of bankruptcy.
With the Soul Swallowing Art, Ye Feng no longer needs to practice the basic skills of Sword Soul. Seeing Xiao Bai return to the pendant on his chest and refusing to show up no matter how he calls, Ye Feng knows that he can no longer count on him.
You can only rely on what you know to improve the Spirit Swallowing Technique as soon as possible.
The first level of the Spirit Swallowing Art only requires swallowing ten ordinary swords with murderous intent. But even with such a simple condition, Ye Feng was stumped when he put it into practice.
He does know what a sword with murderous intent looks like. As far as he knows, a sword with murderous intent will release a violent aura, and the price of such a murderous intent sword is usually more than ten times that of an ordinary sword.
It is sold in stores.
However, not everyone can go to the shops in the outer courtyard of Jianzong. If he is still an elite disciple of the outer courtyard, he can go into the shops to buy weapons without hesitation. If he doesn't have enough money, he can pay the bills. But now, as he is almost a servant, he wants to
If you buy ten murderous swords at a time in a shop, you may not be able to get out of the shop unless you take out a hundred taels of snowflake-patterned silver.
In the past ten years of working as a servant, Ye Feng had accumulated thirty taels of silver in savings. In addition, after leaving home, his parents gave him twenty taels of silver because they were afraid that he would suffer in the sect, and his total possessions also amounted to fifty taels of silver.
If you spend fifty taels of silver to buy ordinary swords, you can buy fifty swords, but you can only buy five murderous swords, and this is far from enough for Ye Feng who is eager to practice the spirit-swallowing art.
After thinking about it, Ye Feng thought of a valuable treasure in his hands - water in the wood. The so-called water in the wood is a drop of liquid condensed from the finest mahogany. This liquid is naturally fragrant.
It can play a role in calming the mind, and it was accidentally obtained by Ye Feng while chopping firewood.
Originally, Ye Feng planned to keep this drop of water in the wood and give it to his mother who always had nightmares at night when he went home to visit relatives. But now he had to take out this precious drop of water in the wood for the ten murderous swords.
, sold to shops in the outer courtyard.
With fifty taels of silver and Mu Zhongshui in his arms, Ye Feng walked towards the shop on the side of the square in the outer courtyard.
Along the way, after seeing him, many disciples from the outer courtyard of the Sword Sect showed a trace of schadenfreude in their eyes. Some even insulted him without any scruples, seeking the pleasure of bullying others.
"Come and see. The first genius of our outer courtyard didn't go to chop wood, but came here wandering around. Does he think he can successfully pass the disciples' assessment down the mountain in three months?" A disciple carried a brown long sword on his back.
He laughed loudly.
After his words fell, the four disciples around him burst into laughter at the same time. One disciple pinched his nose and said angrily: "Of course our first genius in the outer courtyard knew that he could pass. But it's not three months, but
Three hundred years. Maybe after three hundred years, this guy's cultivation will be improved."
The unabashed ridicule from those around him fell into Ye Feng's ears, making him sad like a needle stabbing his heart. He glanced coldly at the group of people who were laughing at him, and clenched the palms of his sleeves tightly into fists.
"Are you still laughing at me? In three months at most, I will let you know that the first genius who could only make you look up to you and fawn over you is back." Ye Feng swore secretly in his heart, and the speed of his march accelerated several times.
point.
Ahead, a broad square appeared in front of his eyes. Seeing the square, the muscles on his face twitched a few times again. It was in this square that the eight-year-old him stunned everyone, even the elder of the sect's outer dean.
Shocked, still in this square, he failed the assessment again and again, was ridiculed mercilessly again and again, and was even spurned by the elders.
Thinking of the unbridled laughter of the people around him during the previous tests, Ye Feng clenched his fists that had just been released and his eyes flashed with light.
The truly strong man in life will never be defeated by difficulties. Since he once fell in embarrassment on this square, he will definitely be able to stand up from here again.
After crossing the square, Ye Feng entered the shop. As soon as he entered the shop, the eyes of everyone in the shop were focused on him.
These eyes, full of contempt, disdain, contempt and other emotions, fell on him and made his body tremble slightly.
"I'm buying weapons." Ye Feng said when he came to the weapons counter.
Standing behind the weapons counter was an outer court disciple in his forties. At such an age, he was reduced to a clerk in an outer shop, which proved that his talent was extremely low.
But for such a guy who is not even able to enter the inner courtyard at the age of forty, the look he is looking at Ye Feng at this moment has a hint of superiority. But it is no wonder that in this disciple's view, it is certain that Ye Feng will be kicked out of Li Shui Sword Sect.
Although he was reduced to a shop assistant, he was the one who was left behind in the downhill assessment, and was obviously a level higher than Ye Feng.
With a crisp "clang" sound, he threw an extremely ordinary long sword on the counter. Before Ye Feng could pick up the long sword, he said impatiently: "Five taels of silver."
Ye Feng looked at the middle-aged disciple in front of him, who was obviously even lower than him, but yet acted in a condescending manner, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
He pointed to the sword on the second floor of the weapons rack and said, "I want that kind."
Ye Feng's cold eyes made the middle-aged disciple stunned for a moment, but he soon came back to his senses and still showed a look of contempt.
"This kind of..." The middle-aged disciple casually pulled out a murderous sword with a light red light, threw it on the counter in front of Ye Feng, and said, "Twelve taels of silver."
Faced with his disciple's disdain, Ye Feng didn't say much. He reached into his arms, took out the carefully collected Mu Zhongshui, put it on the counter, and said, "I'll exchange the Mu Zhongshui for eleven murderous swords."
According to the market price, a bottle of Mu Zhongshui is worth about one hundred and twenty taels of silver. Ye Feng exchanged it for eleven murderous swords, but suffered a loss. But even so, when the middle-aged disciple saw him taking out Mu Zhongshui, he
, there was still a hint of making things difficult on his face.
He originally wanted to make things difficult for Ye Feng, but when he saw the shopkeeper's stern look, he suppressed his thoughts.
"Hmph, how can a loser get Mu Zhong Shui? He couldn't have stolen it from somewhere." The middle-aged disciple muttered dissatisfied, then turned around and pulled out ten murderous swords from the shelf and threw them in front of Ye Feng.
